It was told that he had did many crimes such as trafficking, killing, etc. Later, He met Gintoki and started to respect him and call him brother. Shachi began to draw manga and his manga get serialized since Gintaman went hiatus. He then starting to realized his own foolishness of doing crimes and turned over a new leaf.

Background[]

Not much is known besides he has done a lot of crimes. Assuming he is nicknamed as "the Killer", one would guess he has actually killed somebody.

In his second appearance, he wore regular prison clothes but with shoulder pads and a belt.

Personality[]

He is violent and easily aggravated but is also extremely sensitive when it comes to his sense of fashion, such as shoulder pads and ripped sleeves being belittled. He is easily manipulated into a servant, as Katsura and Gintoki did so with ease.

As he wrote manga with Gintoki, he began to repent his old self and changing to a new leaf.

He was first seen when Katsura was sent into prison. He tried to bully Katsura but ended up becoming a fan of him and following him instead.

Jail Arc[]

His second appearance was when Gintoki was sent to prison for a crime he didn't commit. Shachi under the order of the warden was to harass Gintoki and the old man. The old man revealed that Shachi drew a manga for a newcomer jump contest.

Silver Soul Arc[]

When the prison burned during the attack of the Altana Liberation Front Shachi refused to evacuate because he needed to work on his manga but didn't have the right screen tones for nipples. Asaemon Ikeda arrived and saved the prisoners from burning to death also freeing them. Shachi felt useless as he knew Gintoki was off fighting so he decided to gather all the nipple screen tones in Edo.

Gintoki, in disguise, and Shinpachi run into Shachi during a fight. Asaemon chased him down misunderstanding his actions as him actually stealing people's nipples as she did not know what screen tones were. Shachi feels that his manga has no meaning without Gintoki and Shinpachi asks to be his reader since he has taken over the Yorozuya position. Shinpachi's critique makes him cry and Gintoki, in disguise, trys to defend it. Gintoki knocks both of them out and Asaemon tells Gintoki to tell Shachi that he can't put uncensored nipples in a shonen jump manga.
